- Sounds schlocky. (to me) -- nm - ty97 Oct 25, 13:33 2
  - possibly... - znufrii Oct 25, 13:36 1
    - Very true -- nm - ty97 Oct 25, 13:38

The Descendents or JEdgar. (If War Horse somehow wins, I quit) -- nm - MDH Oct 25, 13:21

- I think Best Actress is going to be a hell of a competition this year. - ty97 Oct 25, 13:22
Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. It's wide open this year and Oscar voters will feel the need to "right" last year's. - Name Withheld By Request Oct 25, 13:20 23
- To be honest, I think it'll miss being nominated for Picture. -- nm - MDH Oct 25, 13:22 22
  - Assuming it's good, it's seems a lock for a nom in an (up to) 10-pic race. - ty97 Oct 25, 13:24 10
    - There's a lot of competition this year -- nm - MDH Oct 25, 13:28 4

        *Looks below at my list of potential nominees* -- nm - MDH Oct 25, 13:31
      - It's going to depend on how well the film is received critically. If the critics like it (TBD) and it's a box office smash (likely) - ty97 Oct 25, 13:29 1
        
        as a nominee, that is -- nm - ty97 Oct 25, 13:29

      - Last I read, there could be up to 10, as long as they got at least 5% of the vote. - ty97 Oct 25, 13:27 3

  - If not for expanded, I would agree. -- nm - Spawn Oct 25, 13:23 10
    - Here's my (way in advance) list of nominees - MDH Oct 25, 13:28 8

        I think they are locks regardless, Oscar can be predictable with bait. And hat's why they are maybes! :-) - MDH Oct 25, 13:36 5
        
        There's almost always something that considered a lock in October that's gone from the list by December - ty97 Oct 25, 13:37 4

        Based on subject matter alone, I'd consider J Edgar the strongest of those three. - ty97 Oct 25, 13:42 1

        I hope its the horse. Speilberg needs to get back his old self not this Horse/TinTin crap. -- nm - MDH Oct 25, 13:40
      - Moneyball is a couple groups too high. It gets that spot. -- nm - Spawn Oct 25, 13:33
    - I think that'd be the type of movie where if it's great, it wins, if it's not great it doesn't get nominated. - Will Hunting Oct 25, 13:26
Rubber. -- nm - Beryllium Oct 25, 13:20
